2007 brought a fresh new look to the world of tile. Amidst the jungle of animal prints and shine of metals, floral patterns bloomed onto the runway.

Bloom II, the newest creation from Cerim Ceramiche, creators of Zebrano, features a contemporary look in their color palette and their bold, modern graphics. Characterized by a 6″x19″ glossy, elongated, straight-edged ceramic wall tile and a 19″x19″ matte floor tile, Bloom II is a perfect addition to any room. Bloom II’s main distinction is the decorative interpretation of elements running from one tile to another. This product was put into production for spaces where modern design and strong images are required.

The six nature inspired wall colors and five floor colors are the result of painstaking research into international interior design trends. The subtle color palette includes warm and cool shades that can be mixed and matched in a variety of combinations. To keep up with modern design trends Cerim works with interior designers and fashion stylists to create images in which the product’s stylistic design reflects the company’s target: young, contemporary and dynamic. Bloom II will be arriving at Statements in the middle of June. The 6″x19″ wall tile comes in six colors: superwhite, white, green, tobacco, brown and black. In addition, we will be stocking five floor colors in the 19″x19″ size (superwhite is not available in the floor tile). To complement the ceramic wall and porcelain floor tiles, Statements will also stock a 3″x3″ mesh mounted mosaic, a simple 3/4″x19″ matita liner and a 1/2″x12″ quarter round trim piece. Bloom II’s 19″x19″ floor tile has a random floral pattern available in the five colors and the 6″x19″ wall tile is sold in a set of four continuous pieces available in six colors.
